Have you asked Santa for a camera tripod for Chirstmas?? :-) Would you like to write something up about the many uses in piano work the Fein Multimaster can help out with? If you have a tripod, you could use your camera's timer and that would leave your hands free to be in the picture of your using the tool. Thanks and stay warm.

The pinblock has a tongue that's set into a groove in the stretcher. I've done a few with a hand saw. I suppose you could use a sawzall, or the Bolduc router blade. Or the Fein MultiMaster: https://www.4multimaster.com/vcc/feinpowertools/multimaster/565787/ I haven't cut out a block yet but I did remove a bass bridge body from the apron in short order and very neatly at that. One tool I'm glad I have. -- Regards, Jon Page -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
